Chapter 504: Jiraiya & Tsunade vs Hiruko
In his Byakugan vision, he could see that the eastern part of the village had already fallen into a chaotic state. Within a small area of a few blocks, hundreds of new Chakra signatures appeared instantly, and all these chakra signatures were connected to a single point via Chakra Threads. Fujin didn’t need to guess too deeply to realize that the person there must be Sasori of the Red Sand who has already started his ‘Red Secret Technique: Performance of a Hundred Puppets!’
But these Hundred Puppets weren’t the end, there was also the presence of Rasa’s Gold Sand, Yuki Clan’s Ice, and Kaguya Clan’s White Bones, among many other types of Ninjutsu being used there from time to time.
Compared with the chaotic and noisy eastern section, the western section is extremely quiet. But nobody who saw the Western Section from up in the air would assume that the situation there is normal, because it is completely abnormal.
Fujin could see thick mist appearing in the western section, and this thick mist was slowly and steadily engulfing the entire western section, and there were vague sounds of fighting coming from the mist.
Then there is Uchiha Clan District where fire and lightning are constantly rising into the sky, sometime Ice and Fire would collide, sometimes, fire and fire would collide, as a result, thick thunder clouds have gathered into the sky above the Uchiha Clan district.
The Inuzuka Clan is swarming with all kinds of birds and beasts along with the constant sound of tornado twisters.
The district of the Aburame Clan is swarming with countless papers carrying out endless explosions.
The district of Sarutobi Clan is filled with all kinds of Ninjutsu colliding with each other.
Overall, it seems to be a doomsday scene, and looking at such a scene, Fujin can’t help but mutter, “Did Akatsuki Organization just launch a full-scale attack on Konoha?” but Fujin was still a bit confused, “But if that’s the case, then where are Obito and Nagato? Also, is the Konan attacking the Aburame Clan is the real one or is it just a paper Clone?”
Although Fujin can see that Akatsuki Organization has launched a full-scale attack on Konoha, he still has to be extremely vigilant against the sneak attacks, after all, there are still a lot of players who haven’t yet made their appearance, like Nagato, Pain Rikudo, Obito, Kakuzu, and Hidan.
Amongst all of these, Fujin is more vigilant against the sudden appearance of Nagato and Obito, especially Obito. Because Obito is now DMS Obito, he has access to both long-distance Kamui and short-distance Kamui, so he is much-much-much more dangerous compared to others.
With his long-distance Kamui, Obito can kill anyone in the blink of an eye without even a need to show himself. The tearing of Kamui is something that even Truth-Seeking Orbs can not resist let alone him who uses Shikotsumyaku for defense, so if once conspired by Obito, only death would await Fujin.
Jiraiya and Tsunade on the battlefield naturally heard the movements all over the village.
Looking in the direction of the Hokage Building, Jiraiya muttered with a solemn expression, “They launched a full-scale attack!”
Tsunade did not turn her gaze from the direction of Hiruko standing on top of his Chimera Bird and said in a deep tone, “Don’t worry about the other things, Sensei has been prepared for this situation and would respond accordingly. For now, we have to get that Box of Bliss from Hiruko’s hands, can’t let such dangerous thing fall into Akatsuki’s hands again.”
After speaking so, Tsunade jumped on top of a broken wall, facing the survived Konoha Shinobi who were still present here, and shouted, “Don’t let the Akatsuki Organization take away the Box of Ultimate Bliss!”
“Yes, Tsunade-sama!” all the ninjas nodded solemnly and were ready to give their all, even their lives to make sure that the Box of Bliss does not fall into Akatsuki Organization’s hands.
Having experienced the nightmare-like hard fight not long ago, all the surviving ninjas understood the horror of Satori and the Box of Ultimate Bliss, at the same time they are also well aware of the consequences should the Box of Ultimate Bliss fall into Akatsuki Organization’s hands, therefore, they would rather die than let such dangerous things be taken away by the Akatsuki.
Hiruko, standing on the back of his Chimera Bird sneered, “You would all rather die, huh?” Whoosh… “Then I shall fulfill this wish of yours!”
Even before his words were finished, Hiruko’s figure disappeared, immediately afterward, he suddenly appeared on the ground and directly pierced the heart of Konoha Shinobi with his arm that was hardened with Steel Release. The process was faster than the time he killed Mui.
“You?!”
“What?”
“So fast!”
The Konoha shinobis around were taken aback and only managed to react when Hiruko pulled out his bloody arm from the chest of the dead Konoha Shinobi.
The corner of Hiruko’s lips arched to reveal a Glasgow grin, and simultaneously five figures of Hiruko appeared on the battle and dragging long afterimages all five-figure pounced on the five Konoha Shinobi in a different position.
This time, however, the five shinobi were ready and defended Hiruko’s attacks with their individual methods… but the result was still the same, all five of them died at the same time as their hearts were pierced by Hiruko.
After killing the five Konoha Shinobi, all five figures disappeared, as if they were never even present there in the first place.
Jiraiya was shocked, “There was no white smoke nor any other element… this shows that they were not any kind of Clones but after images… his speed has already reached such a degree?!”
Toad Fukasaku on Jiraiya’s shoulder was also shocked, “Such inhuman speed! Is this really Swift Release Kekkei Genkai?”
Even if all the Konoha ninjas on the battlefield were somewhat tired or wounded, but they were all experienced shinobi, not free melons that can be chopped so easily!
“Damn it!” Tsunade was furious as she saw Hiruko slaughtering fellow Konoha Shinobi one after another, and without wasting any more breath on trying to convince him with words alone, she pounced on him with her fastest speed to land her explosive punch on her and kill him in one shot.
Boom…!
But the moment her fist touched Hiruko, it completely phased through him. Tsunade instantly realized that this is only an afterimage left by Hiruko, and her fist after passing through the afterimage hit the ground producing an explosive noise as well as smashing a deep pit that sunk several meters into the ground.
Although her attack failed, Tsunade was far from giving up, and instantly turned around to find Hiruko’s figure.
Whoosh
But before she could get up, Hiruko suddenly flashed behind her and pierced his through Tsunade’s back.
Feeling the sudden wind behind her, Tsunade wanted to turn around or flash away, but Hiruko’s speed was too fast and she could barely tilt her body a few centimeters when Hiruko’s hand pierced through her back and appeared out of her chest.
“Puff…” Tsunade spat out a mouthful of blood and her clothes were wet. But thankfully, Hiruko’s arm did not puncture her heart because she managed to tilt her body a few centimeters, therefore, she would still live.
Hiruko obviously noticed this, but he didn’t mind, even if she managed to save her heart from being punctured it would mean nothing as she would die very soon, therefore, he decided to play with her a little bit and said with an amused tone, “Tsunade, do you see it now? Do you realize it now? This is the gap between us!”
“Cough-cough!” Tsunade was unable to answer as blood was accumulating in her throat.
“Tsunade!” Jiraiya in the distance exclaimed and rushed over.
Hiruko’s smirk widened as he glanced at Jiraiya, “Are you in such a hurry to die?” and decided to toy with Jiraiya for a little while until Sandaime Hokage himself shows up.
But just as Hiruko wanted to withdraw his arm that was piercing through Tsunade, his brows frowned because he found that his arm couldn’t be pulled out.
Although Tsunade was coughing up blood, she was also tightly holding Hiruko’s hand that pierced through her chest. Then immediately she waved her elbow behind in order to smash Hiruko’s head.
Smash!
Contrary to what Tsunade expected, there was no sound of bones breaking, nor was there any sound of muscles tearing, which made her frown. Tsunade turned her head onto to notice that her elbow was blocked by Hiruko’s other arm that was hardened by Steel Release, and… three black tomoe were already spinning in Hiruko’s Sharingan.
Seeing the Sharingan; the surprise on Tsunade’s face was clearly apparent and noting her surprise, Hiruko said, “The contraction of muscles in your shoulder blades has already exposed your intention… Tsunade… anything you do would have no effect in front of these eyes!”
Immediately afterward, lightning appeared on Hiruko’s arm that was piercing through Tsunade’s chest. The use of lightning caused a paralyzing sensation on Tsunade’s body and loosened her grip on Hiruko’s hand. Using this opportunity, Hiruko instantly pulled back his hand at the same time, lifted his leg hardened with Steel Release, and heavily kicked Tsunade’s back which broke several bones in her body.
At this time, Jiraiya also rushed over and started fighting with Hiruko.
While Jiraiya is in Sennin Mode, all of his physical stats including Action Speed, Reaction Speed, Striking Strength, Perception, Ninjutsu et cetera are boosted to the limit. And with the cooperation of the Two Great Sage Toads that can assist Jiraiya in the Honored Sennin Mode, it is not an exaggeration to say that his fighting power doubles.
However, Hiruko is also one of the strongest existences in the current Shinobi World, with the combination of five Kekkei Genkai including Swift Release, Steel Release, Dark Release, Storm Release, and Sharingan, coupled with the Chimera Buds in his body and the Dark Medical Ninjutsu that he has mastered, Hiruko is not only not afraid of the Jiraiya in the Sennin Mode, but is more than confident enough in fully thrashing Jiraiya.
Boom Boom Boom Boom
The two of them are like monsters, constantly fighting on the ground, dragging out countless afterimages across the battlefield. Each and every move would produce shocking airwaves and ear-piercing loud noise.
When Jiraiya fought with Hiruko, the Konoha shinobis were a little relieved and hoped that Jiraiya-sama can defeat this monster, but it’s a pity that they hoped too much of him… as after just a few exchanges, Jiraiya was ruthlessly kicked out by Hiruko.
Boom…
Jiraiya who was kicked out by Hiruko knocked out several buildings in a row and barely managed to stop the momentum of his body as the smoke and dust covered the sky.
Hiruko twisted his neck, and said in a disappointing tone, “Is Sennin Mode only at this level?”
Initially, Hiruko had high hopes from Jiraiya who can use the Sennin Mode, after all, the power of Senju Hashirama in the Sennin mode was simply mindboggling. But after personally experiencing the power of Jiraiya in the Sennin Mode, Hiruko was seriously disappointed.
While Hiruko looked at Jiraiya with a disappointed gaze, Jiraiya who crawled out of the rubble coughed out blood and his heart was stormy as he looked at Hiruko with an incredulous expression.
If he was in his best state, then there is no way he would be defeated so quickly at the hands of Hiruko, but not long, he fought against Satori that not only resulted in heavy Chakra consumption but also inflicted some injuries, so the state of Jiraiya when he fought against Hiruko, Jiraiya was already a bit tired.
Not to mention, he can’t use Senjutsu Chakra enhanced Ninjutsu against Hiruko as they will be easily absorbed by Hiruko, therefore, Jiraiya’s combat effectiveness is greatly limited against Hiruko who can cope up with all forms of combat thanks to his five Kekkei Genkai.
But even with all that, Jiraiya had to admit that he is no longer Hiruko’s opponent, the difference in raw power is simply too much. Jiraiya has a feeling that even if the current him, Tsunade, and Orochimaru work together to fight, the result would be no different, and they would still be defeated.
Hiruko obviously didn’t care about Jiraiya’s thoughts and looking at the two of the Legendary Sannin lying injured at his feet, Hiruko said with a carefree smile, “It’s a pity that Orochimaru has already defected because if not, then I would have easily thrashed the Legendary Sannin here… and I wonder, what is Sandaime Hokage thinking upon looking at the scene here… I really want to see his current expression.”
Boom!
While Hiruko was distracted in mocking Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Sandaime Hokage, a loud explosive sound resounded and the entire battlefield shook.
Everyone turned to look at the cause and noticed that the Box of Ultimate Bliss that was supposed to be present on the back of Hiruko’s Chimera Bird has fallen from the sky. Immediately afterward, Fujin’s figure also slowly floated down and gracefully landed on top of the Box of Ultimate Bliss.
